The ever prescient @kixes:
“Nobody ever told me that the hardest part of living under authoritarianism—especially Singapore’s insidious, “soft” version that seems to be becoming attractive to other governments around the world—is not what they do to you, but what they make you do to yourself and to the people around you”

you know, i really recognize my own privilege when i ENJOY the occassional late night at the lab, doing final hardware integration for a deliverable and doing last-minute bugfixing and troubleshooting.
still, i know I'm gonna be tired as piss tomorrow
Something white folks like me from "middle class" backgrounds really need to fucking deal with is that privilege isn't just the advantages that put us a little ahead or give us a little more comfort or space or whatever.
Privilege is also having the real ugliness of the "American way of life" hidden from us.
There is no justice here. Our prisons are full of the suffering underclasses that are impoverished, criminalized, & enslaved. Unhoused people are treated like vermin to exterminate.
oh wow today is flying by,
Happy Pi day people!

I'm trying to be open about this, because I've noticed it's not just me. A lot of folks are struggling with this. It's not surprising - the world is a bit crazy right now, and it's either hard to look away, or it's so bad folks are trying to find a distraction.
But when you are distracted, it's hard to take action.
A lot of things need action at the moment.
